INTERESTING.
It's doing all the right stuff, but it seems to not be Spawning the upgrade cards.
It's supposed to pause the game and give you 3 upgrade cards to choose from (only 33% of glitches do so). You cannot pause or move until you choose a card so that's why you're freezing.

The only idea I have rn is perhaps the cards are showing up UNDER the orange banner due to Sprite Render Order. I could look into that and upload a new patch, but I think that would be against the rules of the game jam?

Thank you for the feedback!

So the damage: they do, it's just an insignificant amount of damage at the beginning of a run cause thematically, the asteroids get tougher as time goes in due to the glitch worsening. So damage taken is very low until like the 2 minute mark giving you leeway to grab some upgrades. By the 10 minute mark, every hit is disastrous.

The freeze issue: I couldn't recreate it. Can you provide some info about how exactly it happened so I can try mimicking that?
